Description Milan Crha 2019-05-16 09:15:20 UTC

I tried to upgrade from Fedora 29 to Fedora 30 and it fails on package conflicts. One problem being ekiga and boost-signals. The terminal output:

# dnf system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=30
Before you continue ensure that your system is fully upgraded by running "dnf --refresh upgrade". Do you want to continue [y/N]: y

Comment 1 Milan Crha 2019-05-16 09:19:24 UTC

(There had been reported two problems, the second is bug #1710759.)

Comment 2 Jonathan Wakely 2019-05-16 12:55:47 UTC

The ekiga package needs to be fixed or retired, this is not a boost problem.

Comment 3 Robert Scheck 2019-05-16 13:31:06 UTC

I'm already working on this, I've a working Ekiga build locally, but some crashes when calling or being called (which seem to be related to newer GCC optimizations, e.g. bug #1696458).

Comment 4 Milan Crha 2019-05-16 13:44:35 UTC

Aha, my fault. I kind of expected that ekiga has its f30 build, been made as part of the mass rebuild, but I only now realized that its f30 build failed and does not exist:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1186090

I though that the boost forgot to add some obsolete or something like that for the removed package. Badly deciphered message on my side. Again, I'm sorry, my fault.

I'm closing this bug to avoid duplicates.

Comment 5 Jonathan Wakely 2019-05-16 13:58:04 UTC

I did forget to add the Obsoletes to boost (that was Bug 1706079) but it's not the problem here, and wouldn't have helped.

Comment 6 Milan Crha 2019-05-16 14:03:25 UTC

> it's not the problem here, and wouldn't have helped.

Yes, I know, I understood as soon as you pointed to the right thing. I just misread the error message before and made some guesses, instead of being sure. I'm sorry.
